Project Gutenberg brings free audiobooks to the global community with AI-generated book narration
When Microsoft learned that the oldest digital library and leading distributor of free eBooks wanted to make its collection more accessible to a broader community of members, including the visually impaired, and those without access to traditional libraries, they donated their generative AI driven solutions, enabling Project Gutenberg to create nearly 5,000 new audio books in record time.
